Not sure what to say?

Remember: We'll who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. 1 Thessalonians 4:17.

God's people never say goodbye for the last time.

We who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. I Thess. 4:17

To the Bishop Gilkey and the entire family.Mother Gilkey was a Woman of excellence and She will be miss.My prayers are with you.

Gilkey Family--There will never be another Mother Gilkey...she led by example, how to be good stewards to God and good wives to our husbands. Mother and Bishop were an Ideal couple..she loved God, Bishop, her family and the church. Mother loved life and lived it to the fullest. We haven't lost Mother, because we know where she will be when He returns. Mary L. Johnson St Mark Cathedral

Mark and Virdena,

I am so sorry for the loss of your mother. She must have been a wonderful person to have a son like Mark.
I hope the memories of her will be with you always.

We are so thankful for our time at St. Mark under the leadership of Bishop and Mother Gilkey. She was a First Lady with charater. Her quiet spirit was most notable. She has left a favorable impression on the Kindle family. May the peace of God carry the family through this time of sorrow.

Love you and miss you very much.R.I.P
Mother.

I am so grateful for the visit I had with Mother Gilkey on May 11, 2012. It will always be remembered in my heart. The one thing that will stand out for me about her is that when I first met her, me and my children were always welcome in her home and when I moved away and came to visit that last time I was welcomed in the same gracious way. To Bishop and her family, I love you with all my heart. Thank you for sharing Mother Gilkey with me and my family for so many years. Our prayers are ever...

I grew up in KS Southwest and always admired Mother Gilkey. Her sweet smile and spirit will be greatly missed. Praying for Bishop, the family, church, and KS Southwest.
